decisions decisions decisions

We started registering for stuff a few weekends ago in Orlando, and it was so much fun! It was a lot harder than we thought it would be because there are so many options. A few of our many dilemmas: Do we want an ultra power blender? A blender that is also a food processor? A blender that coordinates with our hand-mixer and toaster oven? What exactly is the difference between 'mega-power' and 'super-power' blenders? We were also in the store wondering exactly how much fruit you would have to eat to make it worth while to buy a cherry pitter, mango slicer, pineapple corer, apple-corer/peeler/slicer, juicer, etc. etc.
We got a free super sweet red swiss army knife bag at Macy's, and were continuously offered free drinks and/or pretzels at Bed, Bath and Beyond. Zak stayed strong and didn't accept any bribery, but I went for the soda. Despite a few complications due to sales people not speaking English, we enjoyed ourselves, and were excited to pick out things for wherever we may be living! We bought our bedspread at the beginning of the summer because it was on sale, and I'm in love with it. Definitely my favorite thing so far.

So we are now officially registered at Crate and Barrel, Bed, Bath and Beyond, and Macy's! We added the links to our wedding website, also. Our invitations have been ordered, florist and musicians are FINALLY booked, and we are moving right along!
This weekend we head to Jacksonville because I'm doing a triathlon with my friend Jenn. Zak and her husband, Adam, are going to be our cheerleaders. The race starts with a 400 meter swim in the Atlantic Ocean, then a 10 mile bike ride, followed by a 5K run. Pictures to come! (As long as I survive....) love, z&j
